Well, it looks like the Miami Heat is moving on in the NBA play-offs due to the fact LeBron James and Dwyane Wade were able to elevate their play to get past the Indiana Pacers last night. Both Wade and James showed a lot of heart in the last two games of the series. Wade had to have his knee drained to be able to compete at the level one would expect and James got a little banged up last night as he continued to show why he is the NBA’s MVP for the third time. The Heat still don’t know if Chris Bosh will return to help James and Wade in the next round or not. The last report on Bosh still had him out indefinitely.

The Miami Heat was also able to get some bench help too. Many thought the Heat was only the big three, last night we saw the Heat does have a little depth to the team. The Heat are going to have to ...
